started at age 3 on some home made mini bike, rode a little honda for a year or so, got a xr 75, rode that for a good while. 7th grade I started racing 80's. my freshman year I started growing really fast, and I was always sick, I quit riding. I bought my 450 this last april. Total number of years riding....with a 17 year break...12.

started at 14 on a Kawasaki Endureo 125 (I think that’s what it was called) then a Kawasaki 400 street (the year after they came out) I’ve had my cycle endorsement since my first license at 16. can you guess my age?:D

Im 19 now, I started out on a little Arctic Cat Kitty Kat when I was about 3; i've been riding sleds ever since. I got my first quad, a Polaris Xpress 300 when I was 12. Then I was soo happy to get my 400EX when I was 15. I'd say i'm really lucky and greatful to have riding and all these toys in my life!
